Darren Smith is out today, so John Gennaro is handling this one solo. He talks for a bit about the San Diego Padres winning last night, why he believes in a Fernando Tatis Jr. resurgence, and why he thinks the team has told the front office to be (bargain bin) buyers, instead of sellers, at the MLB trade deadline.
Also, after John complains a bit about how the 7th inning was managed last night, he re-visits his Padres trade ideas from yesterday that would bring in two new OF/DH options and a new starting catcher.
After that, Darren Smith has sent in a couple of funny clips that show off the perspective of Europeans when it comes to American sports hatred and American weather. Both of them are very funny.
Finally, stadium talk is back in San Diego. Not really, but kinda. Hopefully, nobody takes it too seriously and we can move into the weekend where the Padres and San Diego FC have critical games ahead of them.
